Based on the book BRENNENDES LAND, the plane was flown by Siegfried Henning, III/JG 3, Bf 109 G-14. Crashed in Switzerland, December 17th 1944. Same pic in the book

Can you explain the chevron with a circle marking on the tail? It is new to me.

Re: eBay: German intrest
 

That is (my) the question Ed. Never seen too.

On 109s, the chevron-circle was the maring of the Technical Officer, placed forward of the fuselage cross.

That's all I can think of it - the aircraft of the TO.

Re: eBay: German intrest
 

Thanks John,
Yes, but that wasn't my question.
I think It should be better to ask if this KG53 He 111 ( I don't think it is a JU 88) for which the WNr. is perfectly readable was, or wasn't, a Stab machine; if yes, of course it was TO machine. ;)
Regards,
Franck.

Re: eBay: German intrest
 

Re: eBay: German intrest
 

The point I was making, Franck, was that what is known as the TO's marking on 109s might also be equally applicable to that He 111. Do you not see the connection?

Hello everyone,
First, thank you yet again Ed for your continuing hard work and dedication. It is truly appreciated.
Second can anyone make out any of the St.Kz. in Post #1708, Spremberg’s Flugbuch, and attached here?
Respectfully,

Hi Steve - Thanks - Posts 1708 - 1711 - 1712 - 1716
The Stkz references mentioned are in fact PN+LE and TV+WS; WW; WX; WY; WZ series the WN is WW.
These are all Fw190A-6 built by AGO at Aslau - I have W/Nrs PN+LA - LZ (550194 to 550219) I do not have copies of his Flugbuch other than odd sheets that have been released before. But I do have TV+WB and WC from Sept.1944 at Aslau. So it would appear that the full Stkz range must run from TV+WA to WZ. So does anybody have any ideas?

Re: eBay: German intrest
 

Hi Tom,
I truly appreciate your response to my question. However, it evokes several questions. First, are these Fw 190 A-6’s being produced in mid to late-November 1944? Also, the reasons for the flights are all, “Einflug,” which suggests first flights of new aircraft. Finally, if they were rebuilds, it seems strange that there are so many near-consecutive St.Kz.
Respectfully,
Steve Sheflin

Re: eBay: German intrest
 

Yes, I DO SEE the connection John but "IS THAT SYMBOL ON HE 111 RUDDER A REALLY STAB SYMBOL" or another thing with another meaning since I never seen stab symbol on bombers' rudders.
Is it so difficult to understand ? :)
